I have searched the downloads for a Chess.com desktop icon and cannot find one.  Does anyone know where I can find one or how to convert an image into a icon ?

Thanks

I was actually looking for one the nice Chess.com images that was made into an icon.  The icon that comes with the download is a standard IE icon.

it is??? it shouldn't be...

Yes Erik. When I load it on my desktop it looks just like the plain IE icon with the large lower case "e".  Maybe I am doing something wrong here. I will try it again.

Just tried to re-install it on my desktop and there is no Chess.com icon just the IE icon.

i have now updated the the download! i wish windows made it easier, but now you have to copy over the icon as well.

might be different for different operating systems. you just need to change the icon (there was no way to embed the icon directly in the shortcut...)

I think what you are looking for is located just to the left of your user name all the way at the top of the page.
